These biodegradable structures are taken over by soft corals, sponges, and seaweeds, providing a safe place for the seahorses to live while their natural habitat recovers.

Traditional block-and-chain swing moorings scar the slow to recover posidonia meadows that H. whitei rely on. New environmentally friendly moorings keep the chain from disturbing the meadows which are slowly being replanted by hand with seedlings that have been washed ashore.
Co-restoration efforts such as Operation Posidonia and Project Restore are being made in NSW, Australia to support two endangered species, White's Seahorse (Hippocampus whitei) and Posidonia australis.
My dnd character, Emrys, just adopted 1,001 spider hatchlings. Look at their envoy. So cute!
With the loss of their natural habitat, H. whitei have been found to inhabit artificial structures such as swimming nets. To take advantage of this, Seahorse Hotels have been developed and deployed to safely release captive-bred seahorses.

It's absolutely amazing looking back at all the art I've done this year. I had forgotten about some of them and that's what makes art summaries so great.
Very proud of myself this year and looking forward to the next!

Oh? It looks like some environmentally friendly mooring has been set up. I wonder what resides in the habitat it's protecting?
Find out in the latest installment of the @seaunseenzine.bsky.social , a charity zine with proceeds going to the Australian Marine Conservation Society, releasing June 8th!
